Quest'opera, pubblicata nel 1877 dalla famosa filosofa e veggente Helena Blavatsky, è così corposa da essere stata divisa in due grandi parti. Associandola strettamente con le dottrine esoteriche dell'ermetismo e del neoplatonismo, Blavatsky descrisse la teosofia come la sintesi della scienza, della religione e della filosofia, affermando il proposito di far rivivere in forma nuova la grande sapienza dei misteri antichi, già intravista a suo tempo dalle religioni maggiori.

In questo secondo volume viene approfondita la storia delle religioni, ricostruendo come l'unico raggio della religione originale sia passato attraverso il prisma delle diverse situazioni storiche e culturali diventando varie religioni, e queste, a loro volta, si siano sfumate in sette. Particolarmente accurato il confronto tra le storie di Crishna, Buddha e Gesù che mostrano analogie tali da sciogliere ogni dubbio in quanto alla loro origine comune. Un'opera indispensabile per chiunque sia in cammino su un percorso spirituale.

One small subject at a time, readings of Blavatsky and William Q. Judge are heard. One's own contemplation of the individual subjects presented, is bound to inform more than simply the moment.

Unquestionably though the ideas, themes and characters make many novels rightly revered as world class, as icons of literature. Whilst Tolstoy, Gogol, Dostoevsky, Pushkin and Chekhov are a given in any Russian collection we also explore and include Andreyev, Korolenko, Turgenev, Blavatsky and many others to create a world rich and dense across a sprawling landscape of diverse people, riddled with the class and unfairness in perhaps some of the most turbulent times that Russia has ever experienced.

There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

Her studies of religion, mysticism and philosophy converges in this collection of weird fiction, stories that Blavatsky considered lighter fare compared to her usual writing.

This collection contains a mixture of stories about ghosts and contacts from spirits, some by celebrated authors, together with essays on psychical research. As Joseph French notes in the preface, even for the skeptic, tales of ghostly activity retain a distinct fascination. The widespread interest in psychic phenomena in the early twentieth century proved to be a significant stimulus to literary production.
